Method
- Every running back who played at Texas State, ranked by rushing yards over his games there. Bowl and playoff games count.
- A decade counts his rushing yards at Texas State in its seasons.
- The record book's numbers are the school's own. Where they and the box scores differ for one player, the box scores are missing a game or count bowls another way.
- A running back still playing at Texas State is counted at tonight's numbers against the record book's, which run through the 2025 season.
